Trawler Fest Anacortes, May 13 – 17, 2014 at Cap Sante Marina also know as Cap Sante Boat Haven. The adorable, quaint town of Anacortes is majestic, beautiful and relaxing for green and seasoned boaters. We invite you to join us this May at Trawler Fest – its unlike any other boat show, boat owners are encouraged to come by boat.

The theme of Trawler Fest last year was – ‘It’s not just a boat show it’s a Rendezvous!’ Once again the staff and volunteer team of Trawler Fest met and exceed ‘green Trawler Festers’. With remarks such as ‘this is our first time to Trawler Fest, everyone is so nice, the organization, hospitality, food, drinks, people … it’s amazing!’

The big white tent was high in fun factor this year; with no shortage of happy boat dogs and delighted owners who have grand cruising plans. For the ‘green Trawler Fest’ exhibitors – you know who you are – they have now been properly ‘seasoned’ – with much thanks to the local watering hole The Brown Lantern.

Trawler Fest’s in-water dealers and boat builders always display a wide variety of boats including trawlers, yachts and cruisers. Congratulations to DeFever for winning the ‘People’s Choice Award!’ Kadey-Krogen has won the past 4 years in a row; 2013 was time to pass the baton.

Attendees and Exhibitors, it was great seeing old friends and colleagues as well as making many more new friends and colleagues. May all Trawler owners use your boat MORE this year. May all exhibitors be blessed in business growth and impact reaching out to your great Trawler Fest business leads while making the most of every opportunity.
